    Check attendance figures for the last couple of times they won the division, You are correct, you do get what you don’t pay for. It works both ways

    Did I say the Twins shouldn’t sign him for that value? I they certainly could. Now try and understand that what I said was you don’t know how far apart they were at the negotiating table. The Twins submitted a figure that was what the experts at trade rumors said he should get. It is not like they are unreasonably low with the offer. They might have been lower at the end of negotiations, Ryan might have been much higher. Still, you nullify a process that you screw nothing about

    The exact ammounts they were haggling over is unknown. The amount they were asking for in negotiations could be far different. The arbitration number represents what the agent thinks they can get out of someone else making the decision. There is a difference

    Crying about Nick Gordon not making a million. That works to destroy credibility of the blogger.

    Being jerked around by the Dodgers at least doubles your odds of getting onto a WS roster

    If having Bell’s intangibles cures the woes of the players who have underperformed from their peak it will not be a problem of what he does hitting as he would be on a bench.

    How quick he should rise depends on his talent level. If he is the second coming of Skenes, he can rise quickly. If he is the second coming of Dylan Bundy, it doesn’t matter. Is there really anything to learn besides throw the ball? If the answer is no, there is rapid rising. If the answer is yes, then there needs to be rapid learning to go with the rising

    They certainly have developed pitchers. Hitters other than Ryan on the major league level are still in the show me stage. Buxton was developed when they got here

    One of the worries is definitely over for this winter. The Twins will not be signing Noah Davis because Pittsburgh did.

    I don’t think Flores will go anywhere else as a DC. I doubt there are many organizations that would work to et the types of players Flores needs for his defense ‘ KOC and the M seem to listen to him. No knuckleheads are hide-able in his defense.

    49 pitchers who pithed in the majors last year are still unsigned. The bottom has had activity as has the top. Some of the $4 mil signings would lead one to think that there are more than one pitcher who thinks that they deserve that much, hence a slow market.

    As the Dodgers signed Ibanez, the Dodgers see a player with minor league options so they have a plan D. The loss of such a player doesn’t concern the Twins because that type of player is always available for a. Little cash or your former 28th round draft pick

    Your last line proves it is a semantics argument on your part.

    Tyler Kinley resigns with the Braves.

    Gladden and Gagne were part of 2 WS winning.teams, i think if they were a starter on both teams they got put in. Zoilo was league mvp and part of a WS team.

    There is no reason to put Kepler in the HOF other than that he is a German player.
  17. old nurse
    You are complaining someone isn’t using your definition of the word.
  18. old nurse
    Semantics

    Boushley went overseas. There goes their closer

    The Phillies stat line suggests they wanted more HR than line drives. I think he was trying to get stronger the quick way to continue to have a job

    Look at all the astounding names listed in this thread. Ooops most were traded for. Why did they trade relievers? Probably because in the long term they were getting more back than what they gave up, except with 2 exceptions. Jax wanted out on short notice was one, Stewart was an injury waiting to happen.
  22. old nurse
    That is what teams do, i don’t think there is enough muscle in the FO to do that if Felix Bautista became available.
  23. old nurse
    Yikes. His performance last year did not say PED use.
  24. old nurse
    Thad Levine to the Brewers

    No front office person has ever made that comment. When they traded for Outman, he was sent to the minor leagues in favor of Wallner, Buxton, Martin and Roden being the outfielders with Larnach also available . Outman did nothing to move up the ladder after Roden was injured.
